+ 加入清单我家的春节我家今年的春节是从腊月二十四开始的。
1月27日 星期四 晴 今天,我们一家五口上午吃完饭,便准备去南山花市逛一逛,可是在去花市的路上还颇费了一些周折。 我们开车开到了大约一半了路程,却发现自己找不到方向,如无头苍蝇般无从下手。正当我们“山穷水尽疑无路时”,忽然发现前方的人多了起来。再一细看,“南山花市”四个大字已然历历在目。我母亲说:“这真是‘山穷水尽疑无路,柳暗花明又一村’啊!” 1月30日 星期日 晴 今天上午,我和老爸把我们去花市买的春联和窗花放在桌子上,准备下午把他们贴上。 下午,我们打开门,正要贴春联,却与叔叔撞了个正着。我问叔叔:“你真么来了?”叔叔说:“过春节了,我回来看看爸妈,顺便帮帮忙忙。” 说时迟,那时快。正在我和叔叔说话的当儿,老爸就已经将双面胶贴在了春联上。只差一步——贴春联。 说干就干。只见我叔叔在贴春联,我在把双面胶上的纸慢慢的揭下来。而老爸独揽一“联”,把下联和横批都贴好了。 现在只差过除夕了。 2月3日 星期五 晴 明天,不,是今天。 凌晨00时00分00秒,新春的第一秒开始了。
我们六个人(爷爷、奶奶、爸爸、妈妈、叔叔、我)齐聚客厅,共同欢欢喜喜过大年。 在新年里,我祝大家福慧双增,万事如意!

I put my rice in the leaves, and I was all over the table, and I was angry. My sister said to me, "you want to make a triangular shape of the leaf and put the rice in it!"
So I did what my sister said, and pressed it on the rice. Whats in the middle of that dish? It was minced meat! I dug a small hole in the middle of the glutinous rice and made it into a round shape, stuffing it into glutinous rice and adding it to the glutinous rice. How can you seal it? I looked at my sister and knew everything.
I pressed down one of the warped leaves and pressed the rope hard. Success! I covered a lot of them in the previous method. Now its time to get the pot down, boil the water first, and then put the dumplings on.
After a while, the dumplings were cooked. The four of you sat at the table and ate the dumplings.
I untied the rope and was trying to remove the leaves, but when I touched it, it was hot. Her sister looked and laughed. I blew and blew the heat away. I again carefully will leaves open, eat up to her delicious dumplings - among all be stuffed glutinous rice, wrapped in a delicious meat, fresh juice in your mouth, no oil is not greasy, and chewy, feels so good!
So the Dragon Boat Festival in the past, his mouth to eat with his hand package dumplings, thought the tang dynasty poet du fu wrote poems: palace clothing is famous, dragon boat be reward. The wind is soft and the snow is light. When the weather is wet, lets go to the heat. The meaning is the length of the word, the whole life.
What a happy Dragon Boat Festival!
过端午节,一定少不了粽子!今天,姐姐就在教我包粽子呢!你瞧。
做粽子一定要有准备的。原来,姐姐已准备好浸泡了3个小时的糯米,同时也买好了粽叶,这样准备就让我大吃一惊了。
我把米放在叶子里,可米全撒在了桌上,我生气极了。姐姐对我说:“你要把叶子做成一个三角形的样子,然后再把米放进去啊!”
于是,我按照姐姐说的步骤作了一遍,在米上按了按,咦?旁边那个盘子中间放的是什么?原来是肉馅哦!我在糯米中间挖了一个小洞洞,把肉馅弄成圆状,塞入糯米中,让它也加入糯米的行列中。可怎么封好呢?我看了眼姐姐,就明白了一切。
我把翘起来的一片叶子按下来,并用绳子用力的扎紧。成功啦!我按照前面的方法,包了好多个。现在就要下锅了,先是把水烧开,然后把粽子放下去。
过了一会儿,粽子煮好了。大家四人坐在桌子旁,吃起了粽子。
我把绳子解开,正想把叶子摘掉,可我一碰,就被烫着了。姐姐看了,哈哈的笑了起来。我吹着吹着,把让热气吹走了。我再次小心翼翼的将叶子掀开,吃起了自己亲手做的香喷喷的粽子来——白白胖胖的糯米中间,包着一团鲜汁可口的肉馅,放入口中,不油不腻,又有嚼劲,感觉太好了!
端午节就这么过去了,嘴里吃着自己亲手包的粽子,心里想着我国唐代诗人杜甫写的诗:宫衣亦有名,端午被恩荣。细葛含风软,香罗叠雪轻。自天题处湿,当暑着来清。意内称长短,终身荷圣情。
这真是一个快乐的端午节!

Today, as the development of technology, people can change their faces by doing plastic surgery, because of the commercial ads, people are highly effected by the exaggerated facts that they can be the shining stars. So people pay special attention on the outlooks, they want to look perfect, as far as I am concerned, the true beauty is nothing with perfect looking, only the inner beauty makes you shining. In the fairly tale of Cinderella, the prince chooses the poor girl instead of the beautiful girls, because he admires Cinderella’s inner beauty, though she is nobody. Though it is just a story, it tells people that inner beauty makes one outstanding. People can make their faces perfect, but there is no way to fulfill their inner beauty by technology. Inner beauty is the most precious thing, beautiful outlook will fade away with the time, but inner beauty won’t, it only getting valuable.
今天,随着科技的发展,人们可以通过做外科手术改变自己的外貌,由于商业广告,人们深深受到那些夸张效果的影响,相信自己可以成为耀眼的明星。因此人们很关注外表,他们想要让自己看起来完美,就我看来,真正的美丽和完美的外表无关,唯有内在美才能让你耀眼。在童话故事《灰姑娘》中,王子选择了那个可怜的女孩而不是那些好看的姑娘,因为他欣赏的是灰姑娘的内在美,虽然她没有地位。虽然这只是个故事,它告诉人们内在美让一个人出众。人们可以通过科技让他们的外表完美,但是内在美却是无法通过科技得到的。内在美是最宝贵的东西,美丽的外表会随着时间而消逝,但是内在美不会,它只会更加珍贵。

A few are woody and some are small trees. Evolutionally, the lily family is probably the basic monocotyledonous stock, its ancestors having given rise to the majority of contemporary monocots, e.g., the orchids, the palms, the iris and amaryllis families, and possibly also the grasses.

篇18:最新春节初中日记怎么写
全文共 777 字
+ 加入清单除夕前两个星期,家里开始门铃不断,快递送来了新鲜杀好的鸡、鸭和羊肉、沾着泥土的春笋、整齐摆放的鸡蛋、冷冻的汤圆、带霜的苹果,新崭崭的衣服和鞋子,还有我喜欢的各种零食
除夕那天,爸爸接来外公外婆,带上大包小包的年货,还有我们家的新成员小猫扑扑,来到爷爷奶奶的新家,大家一起为大年夜忙碌。爷爷贴起福字;妈妈穿上围裙,做起了这次年夜饭的主厨;奶奶在旁边指导一些菜品的做法;爸爸趴在地上,把房子的角角落落都擦了一遍;外公在餐桌上摆出各种酒;我在妈妈身边,帮着妈妈刷鲍鱼;外婆在这边插一下,那边掺一手地忙;小猫也不闲着,从屋这边跑到屋那边,给我们带来欢乐。
每年的忙碌,我都看在眼里,记在心里,可是为什么春节是一年里最忙碌的节日?我忍不住上网查了一下,很多资料说:春节意味着万象更新,家家户户都要辞旧迎新、团团圆圆,这是整个家庭的团聚、是亲人们表达互相关爱的时刻,但我有些似懂非懂。
当饭菜端上满满的餐桌,春节联欢晚会的音乐也热热闹闹地响了起来,我们围坐一桌,碰杯欢笑。这时,我想起爸爸平时总是出差,爷爷奶奶生病,外公外婆住得远,很少像现在坐在一起,忽然感觉,春节就像一个港湾,我们就像一条条船,在这时团聚了。
接下来几天,日子过得飞快,我们陪外公外婆游玩宋城,表姨一家到我们家拜年,我们到堂伯家吃饭聊天我认识了好多平时不太见面的亲戚。我们一家三口看了电影,逛了寺院,聊了很多关于我的事情。我的心里,满满都是对新春的满足。
忙碌过后,我突然有了一种想法,在春节的忙碌中静下心来,思索一年发生的事情,想想对自己的看法,一年的学习是否给自己带来较大收获,是否留下了遗憾?规划明年的打算,怎样让学习效率更高,生活更充实?这样,也许可以在下一年更优秀。
真希望喜庆的歌曲一直唱,火红的灯笼永远高高挂,每天的生活都像这样的忙碌”啊。这个春节,我第一次感觉,自己逐渐理解过年的真正意义了。
篇19:2024年春节初中
全文共 802 字
+ 加入清单春节,多么喜庆又令人期待的节日啊!可2020年的春节,却是那么特殊,因为,我们遭遇了一场突如其来的由“新型冠状病毒”引发的疫情灾难。
这“新型冠状病毒”的爆发点是在湖北省武汉市,听说这种病毒可能是从人类乱吃蝙蝠等野生动物开始的。简直太恐怖了,人类为什么要吃野生动物?书上不是说要我们人类和动物成为好朋友的吗?我真有点不敢相信。疫情爆发后的武汉全面封城,我从新闻里看到了武汉医院里人满为患,医生、护士冒着被感染的风险日夜奋战,在生死一线抢救病人;武汉市民被隔离在家,隔着电视屏幕,我都能感觉到他们的害怕和无助。幸好,全国各地人民向他们伸出了援手,有捐款的,有捐医疗物资的,还有捐蔬菜和食物的,大家纷纷为武汉捐献自己的一片爱心。我也通过妈妈的微信捐赠了20元钱。虽然钱不多,但我相信,只要有更多的人献出自己的爱心,我们就一定能战胜这场疫情灾难!
作为一名社区干部,我的老爸也奋战在防疫一线。从大年三十到今天,他一天也没有休息过,每天在社区指导工作,带领工作人员挨家挨户进行排查:从武汉、浙江回来的,去过湖北、浙江的,途径湖北、浙江的,老爸他们都要上门登记并叮嘱他们在家隔离,每天定时上门给他们测量温度,上报数据。除此之外,他每天还要开很多会,听取上级工作布置,汇报社区情况……我已经一个多星期没有见到他了。上次回来,他一进家门就冲进卫生间洗澡,生怕把病毒传染给我和妈妈。每次跟他通电话,他都心不在焉,三句话讲不到就跟旁边的人讨论工作的事情,唉………真是不忍心打扰他。听妈妈说,老爸每天都要工作到半夜,饭也不能按时吃,真是太辛苦了。我跟妈妈说:“我有点想爸爸了,而且老爸不在家,我有点缺乏安全感。”妈妈摸摸我的头说:“爸爸维护的是更多人的安全,这叫‘舍小家,为大家’,我们应该尽全力支持他。”妈妈说得很有道理,我为老爸的敬业精神点赞。
希望这次疫情能快点结束,还我们一个喜庆、团圆的春节,给我们一个健康、平安的中国!

The Dragon Boat Festival is celebrated by boat races (龙舟赛) in the shape of dragons. Competing teams (竞争团队) row their boats forward to a drumbeat (击古)racing to reach the finish end first.
The boat races during the Dragon Boat Festival are traditional customs (传统习俗)to attempts to (试图)rescue (搭救) the patriotic poet (爱国诗人)Chu Yuan. Chu Yuan drowned (溺死) on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month in 277 B.C. Chinese citizens now throw bamboo leaves (竹叶) filled with cooked rice into the water. Therefore the fish could eat the rice rather than the hero poet. This later on turned into the custom of eating tzungtzu and rice dumplings(棕子).
The celebrations is a time for protection (防护) from evil (邪恶) and disease (疾病) for the rest of the year. It is done so by different practices such as hanging healthy herbs on the front door, drinking nutritious concoctions (营养品), and displaying (展示) portraits (画像) of evils nemesis(邪恶报应), Chung Kuei.
